I saw a Robin out in the back yard today. We have had a week of warmer weather - between 32 and 38 degrees - and the snow has melted in much of our yard. Today a huge flock of birds was back there digging for worms, and among them was a Robin. In the three years that we have been here I have never seen a Robin before the end of February. I wonder if this means that Winter is headed out and Spring is headed in?

Uh, they are here year round.
ok - but you don't usually see them out.
Mrs. Robin must have heard the saying "the early bird catches the worm."
